Fixed my range/speed issues
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Mike27762
I bought this to replace my Google Wifi mesh system that had poor range and speed unless you were within 15 feet of the main router. The Google Wifi satellite in my office was 5 feet from my work laptop and I was only getting 100 Mbps on a 300 Mbps plan. After I switched to the Netgear Orbi system with the main router and satellite in the exact same locations I am now getting full speeds on my work laptop (300 Mbps) connected to the satellite. That is 3x faster than Google Wifi. I would highly recommend this mesh system for speed and coverage in a large home.

Not Bad after second try
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Rony60398
At the beginning I was kind of excited to try and see how reliable this product was. However, I ended up being frustrated and took it off and connected my old system back. In the mean time I waited 2 days and decided to give it another try before returning the product. I got to say I'm glad I did; I took my time and hooked it up and as of now the system works just great no issues, speed I do get what I pay for set up very easy and it dos have so many options and settings, from VPN to parental control. In other words yes it does a good job and works just great.

A Huge Upgrade
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Steve53870
With tons of streaming, gaming, cell phone, speaker, security cameras and other devices, we were lagging when it came to speed and reliability using our awesome ASUS router. It had served itself well but an upgrade was long overdue. The Netgear ORBI was the right choice. We shopped for over a month considering all the options that are on the market for whole home coverage. ORBI had everything we needed. It handles all of our electronics with room to spare and covers not only our home footprint but a short walk with the dog as well! You wont be disappointed.

Best System
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Matthew90984
We bought a couple different wifi systems to try out including the Google WiFi (I'm a huge Google fan) and the Linksys Velop as they were both cheaper. Well both of those were only dual band (not the greatest for a house full of smart devices) and didn't have the range we were looking for. We decided to return those and we spent a little extra money on the orbi, and even with just two devices (the main router and the satellite) it covers the whole house! I'm amazed at how simple and effective this system is for whole home coverage!! I highly recommend this product!

Superb WiFi Experience
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Stephen74392
The Orbi system is great for covering an expansive living space. My current home is 6000sqt + and the Orbi WiFi system does an amazing job delivering WiFi too all areas of the house without any deadzones or lag. I use the Orbi app for set up which made it extremely easy. I wouldn't try to set it up without the Orbi app. With the app I can manage the devices connected to my Orbi WiFi and check internet and data speeds. 9/10 would recommend. I take 1 point off because it can be difficult to set up if you don't use the app or have prior experience with WiFi setup.

Orbi is great!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Shawn93632
The Orbi is fantastic! it does exactly what it says on the box. It delivers my high speed internet to all parts of my house. I used to have dead spots in my home but now I have full coverage all over my home, backyard and front yard. My only issue is that there are USB ports on the back of the router and satellites and I can't plug in my external hard drive to it. Also the first few days, the Orbi was fantastic. Now, its slows down on certain devices. I get 1000/1000 speed from Verizon but for some reason I only get 500 mbps (rarely) or 250 mbps (most of the time).

What a Relief!
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: JoshuaBoe83073
My house is old and full of stone and stucco and goodness knows what else. I had tried so many other routers, but still couldn't get reception on my couch (which is where I do all my homework).
A friend told me to check out a Wireless 'Mesh' system, and I'm so glad I did! I have fast, reliable reception everywhere in my house (2 floors and basement) and can finally start building automated 'smart' systems into the house without having a concern about connectivity! This item is a must-buy for another disappointed with their current wireless system.

Easy setup, GREAT router
on May 29, 2019
Posted by: Dominic15891
I knew we needed better WIFI in our 2 level 3100 sq ft home so I did my research and went with the Orbi - all we needed was a router and one satellite and we've got great, fast, reliable internet all over the house, garage and yard. We can be streaming HD video and all surfing on our mobile devices simultaneously - and there's never even a hiccup. Setup was a breeze, and the app is great - it even includes speed test capability built right in. You can set up a guest network using the same hardware that co-exists seamlessly with your main network. Highly recommended!
